Over the past week or so I have posted more than a few messages on MyDD about why I felt it was premature to ask John Graham or any candidate for that matter, to drop out of the primary by yesterday's deadline.  My reasons are scattered on so many diaries here, and even though I seemed to be in the minority on the subject, yesterday came and went, and Graham is still on the ballot.  

During this time I have done a lot of research on him and his views, and I even got to meet him yesterday.  I can say sincerely that he is the most thoughtful candidate I have ever met, and that in my mind, he is the right guy for the job.  Of course others may disagree, and so we'll see what happens in the primary.  But he impresed me so much that I have decided to volunteer for him, and since I do not want my posts to be confused with any official or unofficial word out of the campaign, I have decided to stop posting until at least the primary is over.  

I thank everyone who contributed to the discussion over this, and I think I speak for most everyone that regardless of which democratic candidate you support, let's push for a really great turnout!
